Photo: Sandy Hook shooter as a toddler.

I try to put as much information and thought into my threads as possible, but I really don't know what to say about this. It is from a cache of
released documents about the SH shooter. I'd like some details, because this to me implies a lifelong outside influence of radicalism. I mean, having
as many guns as are seen in the photo is nothing i'd consider shocking, but dressing the kid up in camo and posing the kid with them and giving him a
handgun to chew on is a bit weird to me.

Among the many documents and photos Connecticut police recently released in connection with the December 2012 school shooting in Newtown is a
photo of the shooter, Adam Lanza, then 20. In it he is just a toddler, and sits surrounded by guns and ammunition, wearing a camouflage hat. He is
teething on a pistol. It’s been over a year since the rampage that that claimed the lives of 20 school children, six staff, as well as Adam’s
mother and himself; police have yet to determine a motive.

I played Cowboys and Indians as a youngster, but have never felt the need to go out and kill native Americans in adult life.

I think being sat surrounded by guns and ammo for a toddler shot will have had nothing to do with going on a shooting spree in later life either,
it's nothing more than a probable anti-gun propaganda piece. In other words, being photographed and being able to chew on a gun as a toddler
obviously scarred him for life and led to this shooting rampage!

Really? You don't see anything strange with giving a baby a handgun and letting him put it in his mouth? Maybe you guys don't have the same adage we
do here: "treat every gun as if it's loaded."

Also you didn't play cowboys and indians at this age. You seem to be missing the point. This indicates there may have been more than meets they eye
regarding the parents and who surrounded Adam Lanza.

The point I was making was that this photo doesn't really mean anything in the context of what he did later in life.

I do agree that giving a toddler a real gun to play with is definitely irresponsible, there is no argument there, but what is the context you are
trying to determine here? The toddler being given a real gun to handle and chew, or that this is somehow connected to what he did when older?

But it kinda does. If this was taken at home it was taken during a time that both Peter Lanza and Nancy were still together. It also indicates an
interest in guns that goes a bit beyond the norm. That doesn't mean they are radical or wrong necessarily, but it shows that this wasn't just a
small hobby for the mother or the shooter later in life.

If this picture doesn't scream "who were/are these people?" to you, i don't know how to articulate it further.

What I would like to see is a full report on Nancy. From friends and others that knew her for years. Was she really a known SHTF readiness person and
if so to what extent. What were the impressions from those that knew her and her husband.

So what? I have pics that my dad and uncles that took of me like that from the 80's.
I haven't shot anyone yet. By your post, are you saying that I am suspect because of one of my childhood pics?
Your idea to impose something wrong with that tells me how much of a drone you are..

Are you saying that boys in high heels or in makeup are driven to become homosexuals?

The idiocracy

Added: Can you show us some of your childhood pics and let us deem what you may do or try.
You crave the wrong attention by posting that IMO

Evidence released on Newtown shooter includes chilling images, Lanza as a toddler chewing on a gun
December 29, 2013
By Anomaly

Evidence collected by investigators on the Newtown, Connecticut, elementary school massacre, revealed shocking pictures and images displaying a
troubled boy, growing up in the midst of America’s gun culture.

Adam Lanza tried his hand at writing in school, with a featured image of a trigger-happy grandma blasting with a “rifle cane” and kids playing a
game of “hide and go die.”

Looks like he was born to be used as a tool and in a black op family. I would never be following orders, just break those illegal contracts and head
for a small town somewhere! Serve and Protect your family and loved ones.

Many of us don't believe one bit of the official stories and true justice for any victims is bringing the real culprits, which would be the government
and cia/para military and possible foreign partners, to justice.

My God, you miss the point to an embarrassing degree. Probably should read my other posts before labeling me, but I guess that has what society has
ingrained in you.

We don't see kids pictures like this and think that kid is going to grow up to be violent, or boys dressed up in high heels and think they are going
to be homosexual/bi/transgender. Of course not, duh, don't be ignorant. HOWEVER we can gleam some information about the parents. Where is this taken?
The Lanza's didn't have this many guns according to the report. Who gives a baby a gun? Even if you empty it and check, it's still just poor
practice.

I know you still may not be getting this, but we don't prejudge, but in RETROSPECT of the mass casualty incident, I think it's fair to examine this
staged picture of the spree killer as a baby dressed in camo, surrounded by weapons, holding a handgun, and wonder what the atmosphere he grew up in
was. What the ideologies were.

Im not even saying they should be admonished, lots of kids grow up fine with prepper parents or militia parents, however this kid didn't and we were
never told he grew up in those kinds of settings, so why are we seeing images that sort of appear that way? Is it a secret? If so why?
